My 2018 xc90 (t5) was flawless. I’m a tough critic. Seriously in just for 2 oil changes in 3 years. I never get the same car and just leased another xc90 (t8). Highly recommend.
👍 POSITIVE
Leased a 2018 XC90 T6 Momentum for 3 years. It was flawless. Other than the yearly maintenance service visit (included with the warranty), never had any issues. So great that I replaced it with another 2021 XC90 (T8)
👍 POSITIVE
Volvo XC90? Suv, and it's a volvo so you're essentially in a bunker on the road lol.
👍 POSITIVE
Really solid review. Did the car drive any different once you started having the noise problems?
👎 NEGATIVE
“It’s been dead reliable,” but needed a new engine lol
👍 POSITIVE
Everyone always shits on the way these things look, but I think they're so cool looking. Call me weird, but I'm ok with being weird, because these things are also weird.
👎 NEGATIVE
It's so fucking over priced, really want to see how these things will cost in 5 years, the old panamera didn't fare well
😐 NEUTRAL
Seriously you review a wagon and show the cargo area FOR TWO SECONDS?!?! Jeesh...Show me the buisness end or dont' bother.
👎 NEGATIVE
The ultimate dad car. But good grief I don’t think I can stomach the price of it brand new.
👍 POSITIVE
All the hate in the comments as if this isn't the best-looking, most high-performance wagon ever made. At the end of the day, you'll never get a wagon to look as good as a coupe because of its proportions, and people are used to only seeing Porsches with 2 doors. You sacrifice slightly cleaner body lines for practicality with every wagon.
